...WINTER STORM WARNING NORTH CENTRAL COLORADO MOUNTAINS TODAY...
This hazardous weather outlook is for northeast and north central
Colorado.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight
Snow will continue in the mountains today and slowly diminish
later in the evening. Additional snowfall amounts of 4 to 8
inches with locally higher accumulations will be possible through
this evening. In addition to the snowfall, gusty winds up to 50
mph will produce low visibility in areas of blowing snow. This
will result in snow covered roads and hazardous travel conditions
today. Over the plains, light snow showers are expected to
develop this evening, with a trace to 3 inches expected, mainly
south of I-70.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday
A quick moving system may bring strong winds to the mountains and
foothills Friday night. Could see a repeat of these winds Saturday
night with the passage of a strong jet stream. Wind gusts of 55
to 75 mph will be possible in areas prone to high winds, such as
mountain tops and higher east slopes of the Front Range. After a
dry and warm weekend, another Pacific storm system could bring
accumulating snowfall and much colder temperatures to the outlook
area Monday and Tuesday. Snow amounts remain uncertain at this
time.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation will not be needed today or tonight.
